Chapter 27 - Chapter 24 Understanding Each Other

Weighted training was the method Qiao Sang thought of to increase the Fire-Toothed Dog's speed.

Speed improvement couldn't be separated from explosive power and frequency.

If it was possible to train the Fire-Toothed Dog to reach its usual speed standards under the weight, then once the Weighted Ring was removed, its speed was definitely going to rise significantly.

However, rational weighting was training, and excessive weight would burden the Fire-Toothed Dog's body.

Qiao Sang remembered reading in a fitness magazine in his previous life that the most reasonable weight range to start with should be 8%—20% of one's own body weight.

The Fire-Toothed Dog's weight was 19kg, but the Weighted Bead it picked was around 25kg.

Qiao Sang put down the Weighted Bead and was about to look at the Weighted Rings when a shop assistant came over.

"May I help you with anything? I can make some recommendations."

Qiao Sang didn't refuse, "I want to buy some weighted gear for my Fire-Toothed Dog."

The shop assistant smiled and said, "Then you'll need a Gravity Necklace. The latest model OM-8 Gravity Necklace from YongChuang Group allows you to adjust the settings according to the pressure tolerance of the Pet Beast. It's suitable for beginners to high-level Pet Beasts and your Fire-Toothed Dog will be able to use it for at least 6 years."

So high-tech?

Qiao Sang's interest was piqued, and he asked, "How much?"

Seeing a chance for a sale, the assistant replied, "350,000 Alliance Currency, but if you apply for our store's membership card, you can get a 5% discount."

That could buy three Fire-Toothed Dogs...

Qiao Sang glanced silently at the Fire-Toothed Dog.

The Fire-Toothed Dog looked back at him blankly.

"Forget it, I'll just buy the Gravity Rings," Qiao Sang declined.

The shop assistant maintained her enthusiastic attitude, picking up a black Gravity Ring from the rack and smiling, "If your Fire-Toothed Dog is just starting to use Gravity Rings, I recommend this 10kg Gravity Ring. The black color also suits the Fire-Toothed Dog well."

"Won't that be too heavy?" Qiao Sang asked.

"Not at all, the Fire-Toothed Dog can easily handle activity under half its own body weight, and for Combat Series Pet Beasts, it's no problem even if the weight is dozens of times their own," the assistant replied.

Qiao Sang understood.

It was the era of Beast Taming; she shouldn't apply the scientific standards of her previous life to explain this.

Persuaded by the sales pitch, Qiao Sang eventually bought 10kg, 15kg, and 20kg Gravity Rings, spending a total of 3,500 Alliance Currency.

Qiao Sang took the Fire-Toothed Dog to a lounge chair in the center of the mall and put the 10kg Gravity Ring on its right forelimb.

This type of Gravity Ring could be adjusted from 3cm to 15cm in size, with an active buckle on the side that allowed for size adjustment. Also, the force would be distributed throughout the body, so there was no need to worry about the gravity concentrating on the right forelimb.

"Does it feel okay?" Qiao Sang asked.

The Fire-Toothed Dog stared blankly at the virtual screen hanging above the center of the mall, not responding to her.

Qiao Sang followed the Fire-Toothed Dog's gaze.

Previously, when she and the Fire-Toothed Dog had arrived, the virtual screen was displaying advertisements, but now it was broadcasting the grandest competition of the Alliance.

The Interstellar Beast Taming Cup.

Also known as the Interstellar Cup.

The Interstellar Cup was a competition that beast tamers selected from four planets could participate in, held once every three years.

With a global population of over 7 billion on Blue Star alone, adding in the populations from the other three planets, there were more than 38 billion people.

Selecting the top Beast Tamers from over 38 billion people to participate in the Interstellar Cup was not a task that could be accomplished overnight.

First, one had to win the championship of two nationwide events within a year and then secure national support to participate in the Asia-World Beast Taming Alliance competition.

National competitors who placed in the top six in the Asia-World Beast Taming Alliance competition would have to compete in the selection for the Global World Alliance Beast Taming competition.

Only the top six in the Global World Alliance Beast Taming competition could participate in the final Interstellar Cup.

The screen was showing the Interstellar Cup.

A refined-looking man in a white coat stood on the screen, a 60-meter-tall Giant Sky Toad beside him.

The Giant Sky Toad, with its gray-black skin and solemn expression, stared straight ahead, a tailor-made pair of black sunglasses adding a cool and mysterious vibe.

The 300,000 capacity stands erupted in deafening cheers, all shouting the names of Lin Ya and the Giant Sky Toad.

The tidal wave of voices reverberated above the competition venue.

Watching the scene on the screen, Qiao Sang's blood was surging as the passion of being a Beast Tamer ignited within her!

Wasn't it the greatest dream of every Beast Tamer to participate in the Interstellar Cup at least once in their life!

Qiao Sang turned her gaze back to the Fire-Toothed Dog, still transfixed by the screen.

She knew that at this moment, she and the Fire-Toothed Dog were in perfect harmony!

Qiao Sang turned the Fire-Toothed Dog's face toward her and said earnestly,"Trust me, Fire-Toothed Dog! One day, we'll be up there too!"

Fire-Toothed Dog: "???"

It looked confused as it listened to its very own Beast Tamer.

That on top?

What on top?

As its Beast Tamer clarified, the Fire-Toothed Dog snapped back to reality and wanted to point at the screen with its paw. It raised its paw and felt something was wrong, only then realizing that something new had been added to its paw.

"Tooth!"

The Fire-Toothed Dog didn't mind and struggled to lift its paw to point at the screen, then excitedly barked.

Qiao Sang, "..."

"Are you saying you want to buy sunglasses?"

The Fire-Toothed Dog excitedly nodded its head.

"You were looking at sunglasses just now, not the competition?"

"Tooth?"

The Fire-Toothed Dog's head tilted.

What competition?

Qiao Sang, "..."

Fuck this so-called 'hearts connecting'!

...

...

Tea Osmanthus Park.

"Tooth!"

A burst of intense Spark shot out.

The Fire-Toothed Dog was spirited, training its skill release while wearing black triangular sunglasses.

Qiao Sang watched from the sidelines.

The triangular sunglasses seemed like a strange switch; ever since it wore them, the Fire-Toothed Dog had been in a state of high spirits.

Spark had already been released 21 times in a row, and its mental state was still remarkably energized.

Qiao Sang couldn't help thinking it was as if it had taken some kind of drug...

Twenty minutes later, the effect wore off.

The Fire-Toothed Dog collapsed on the ground, unable to get up again.

Luckily, there was still plenty of the energy-boosting milk bought earlier. As the Fire-Toothed Dog drank the milk, Qiao Sang's consciousness entered the Beast Taming Codex.

[Name: Fire-Toothed Dog]

[Skills: Bite Hold (Beginner 74/100)+, Ram (Expert 138/500)+, Flame Tooth (Beginner 41/100)+, Spark (Beginner 32/100)+]

[Points: 55]

The Fire-Toothed Dog had released Flame Tooth 18 times and Spark 26 times this time!

Qiao Sang looked at the Fire-Toothed Dog, eyes twinkling, and asked, "What other styles of sunglasses do you like?"

"Tooth~"

Despite its weak barks, the Fire-Toothed Dog sounded excited.

Eventually, under the Fire-Toothed Dog's selection, Qiao Sang ordered six different styles of sunglasses online.

One for each day of the week, a different style every day.

At 3:32 p.m., the Fire-Toothed Dog recovered.

This time, Qiao Sang didn't let it overexert itself; after it released Flame Tooth four times and Spark eight times, he had it stop.

The data for the Fire-Toothed Dog in the Beast Taming Codex changed as well.

[Name: Fire-Toothed Dog]

"Fire-Toothed Dog, next we are going to do weight training," Qiao Sang said.
